2017 Flotsam & Jetsam Chenin Blanc, Chris Alheit, South Africa

The 2017 Chenin Blanc from Chris Alheit's Flotsam & Jetsam label is stunning. It's textured and ripe, with Golden Delicious, pears and acacia all pouring forward, alongside just the right amount of grip and a lick of spice. It's got enough weight and drive to be the perfect match for loads of foods, but remains light enough on its feet to be a wonderful glass on its own: the perfect bottle to meet you after a day at work.
